The so-called ‘Festival of Radical Imagination’ celebrates just that and explores new methods of empowerment, collective action and technological progress. This year the festival pays special attention to the “platforms, interfaces and resolutions needed to build a better future” and ask “a new generation of thought-provoking artists, activists and academics: what is progress?”. Hosted by author Warren Ellis, speakers include journalists Aimee Cliff and Ash Sarkar, artists Melika Ngombe Kolongo and Roger Hiorns, and philosopher Nina Power.
